Chapter 18: Weed Management in Forest Nurseries

Weeds often create problems for forest-nursery managers. Left unmanaged, weeds can drastically lower crop quality. Conversely, weed control at any cost can devastate a budget. Proper weed management requires careful development of an integrated program—not mere reaction to problems after they occur. Program components include planning, implementing, documenting, and evaluating results of both prevention and control operations.
